i grew up in a small town in VT and everyone waved to each other, i miss that. now near the city and i don't bother waving unless its an old rover. otherwise i'll most likely get a 1 finger wave in return

I love Vermont! People actually stop to let you cross the street. Haha! That was a shock to me having grown up in the NYC metro area.

^yes we do haha. People think it's so odd when I stop on my motorcycle/ huge DII/ murdered modded S60R to let a 6 year old cross the street. Don't expect the kindness we VTers like to give.

I wave or flash my lights OR do one flick of my wiper blades. All work and usually every single time they respond. It's only a disco thing though. RR and RRS tend to stare me down...I'm not sure why. I also always try to park near Discos. Or any LR. There is a real nice black D2 at my university, but I always get there too late and someone parks next to it, and there is a red one as well D2 but that one is hard to find sometimes haha

When I drive my Series III, most of the modern Rover drivers look right through me (I'm sure they don't recognize the lineage). I wave at other Series drivers. (not like this happens very often)
When I drive the Disco, nobody waves.
When I drive my '47 ******, everyone waves (including pedestrians) Maybe it's because it's so slow everyone has a chance to wave.

That's funny," guys that drive Harley's are ****". What would the % be?

Ha! I find them annoying as well...
Let's make it loud as all hell... And sit at stoplights revving it constantly for maximum annoyance!
Oh well what can you do....
